UDEVD(8)               DragonFly System Manager's Manual              UDEVD(8)

NAME
     udevd - udev daemon

SYNOPSIS
     udevd [-d]

DESCRIPTION
     The udevd daemon attaches itself to the kernel's udev interface,
     /dev/udev and provides an interface for the devattr(3) library to access
     the kernel's udev events and device properties.  The udevd daemon has to
     be running for the devattr(3) library to work.

     The options are as follows:

     -d          Debug option.  Causes udevd to not go to the background.

     The udevd utility creates the file /var/run/udevd.pid, and stores its
     process id there.  This can be used to kill udevd.

SEE ALSO
     devattr(3), rc.conf(5)

HISTORY
     A udevd appeared in DragonFly 2.7.
